However, cortical networks are embodied in complex circuits, including neuromodulatory systems such as the noradrenergic locus coeruleus, providing information about internal state and behavioral ...

麻省理工学院神经科学家的一项新研究表明，这些能力是独立的，但是在名为 “locus coeruleus（LC）” 的大脑区域中，去甲肾上腺素产生神经元的活动 ...

A small cluster of cells deep within our brains, called the locus coeruleus, affects how awake and attentive we are, how we respond to stress, how we cope with anxiety and fear, and how we create ...

Scientists believe the locus coeruleus is the brain region most vulnerable to the physical changes caused by Alzheimer’s disease, with signs of the illness possibly appearing years — or even ...

The study from UNIL shows that a brain region called the "locus coeruleus" (in green) plays an important role in regulating these cycles. The green trace on the left shows the fluctuating activity ...

The locus coeruleus is a region of the brain that is instrumental in coordinating our mental processing and is the primary source of noradrenaline in the brain, which acts to regulate arousal ...

The locus coeruleus—Latin for "blue spot"—owes its name to its color when observed in autopsy. It projects to just about every area of the brain (and to the spinal cord) to secrete a ...

This is the locus coeruleus – Latin for “blue dot”. It measures just a few millimetres, but its diminutive size belies its power over your thoughts. Research has revealed that the structure ...

Locus coeruleus (LC) is known to house the vast majority of norepinephrine-releasing neurons in the brain and regulates many fundamental brain functions including the fight and flight response ...

The locus coeruleus is emerging as a major new area of research interest, with many important functions such as regulating our attention and sleep. Anyone with insomnia knows the impatience and ...

The carbon dioxide levels in your blood begin to rise and that kicks into life the locus coeruleus, a specific part of your brain which starts producing even more noradrenaline. As noradrenaline ...
